This needs to be at the top of every story about the ICE body-cam thing. They already have body cameras.

They took away his right to post. Not sure there's a bigger punishment in the MAGA universe.

This is progress, but we are not letting up. Demand your Senators vote no on a bill that would keep funding ICE while doing nothing to keep us safe from these out of control federal agents. Take action at aclu.org/stop_ice_attacks-

don’t even think about getting off the gas. run it til they stop it. drop 60 on their heads

Waze would’ve been prosecuted long ago if this were legitimate.

I still think it’s wild that Bill Kristol outflanks the Democratic Party on ICE.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives. We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

NEW: There are 2,400+ elections for DA & sheriff this year. These matter hugely to criminal justice & policing—including: *these are often officials who decide ICE collaboration.* So I took a dive into these 2,400+ races to identify early hotspots and battlegrounds. Read, & check out our maps:

ICE on our streets puts us all in danger. We should not have to fear for our safety because federal agents are terrorizing our communities.

57% of Floridians voted to end the state’s extreme abortion ban. Everyday Floridians want the freedom to make their own health care decisions. We don’t want politicians making those decisions for us.

DHS has shot 12 people during immigration enforcement operations since September:

i think this attitude — that all opposition is illegitimate and nothing we do can be questioned— is probably pervasive in the white house and helps explain why they keep making terrible political choices

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

I can't put into words the feeling of watching our government, a hive of evil antisocial filth, the absolute worst humanity has to offer, colliding with the best. Ordinary people trying to help each other, risking everything to stand up for what's plainly, unambiguously fair and right. It's unreal

I'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.

genuinely stunning image

🚨New year, new episode! Ryan (@ryanrayfla.bsky.social) is joined by Peter Schorsch of FloridaPolitics.com to discuss the current state of journalism, Vibes, & the DeSantis approach to friendship in the Florida Capitol Listen to the latest Tropical Depression wherever you get podcasts!

Last spring, Mohsen Mahdawi walked out of his citizenship interview in handcuffs, targeted for his advocacy for Palestinian rights. We fought for his release and won. In the face of relentless government attacks on free speech, Mohsen is clear-eyed: "There is no power that can silence the people."

A video in Minneapolis appears to show a federal agent kneeing a man in the face while he is being arrested.

ICE's net approval rating is at -17 points. 51% of Americans say that ICE enforcement is making cities less safe. Trump's net approval rating on immigration is -16 points. A 19 point drop in less than a year's time.

This was funny enough but this actually got me

How is this controversial to say, @mayordeegan.bsky.social? floridapolitics.com/archives/773...

We’re back with a new episode out now! Ryan talks to Jamil Davis from @blackvotersmatterfund.org about Black voting power and how the Florida GOP is trying to gerrymander our state so Trump keeps control of Congress. Check out Tropical Depression wherever you get your podcasts!

In kayfabe, it’s kinda mean of Jey to insist on using his music that literally says “it’s just me” when The Usos are supposed to be back together. #WWERaw

Oba Femi vs Drew McIntyre would be a sick BIG MEATY MEN SLAPPIN MEAT match #SNME

I’m at the second hearing of Florida’s House redistricting committee. It was originally scheduled for 9:30am, and over the course of several days was moved to 8:30am, and finally 9am. Not only will there be no public comment, people are being told they can’t even fill out an appearance card.

Eileen Higgins becoming mayor of Miami is a big deal. Something flying a little under the radar but is also a big deal: No Carollo, De La Portilla, or Suarez in office for probably the first time in my life. Miami is (finally) turning the page on its political dynasty families.

Packed room and overflow into the hallway for the first meeting of Florida’s redistricting committee. The chair starts with a statement saying the Legislature’s efforts are not influenced by redistricting around the country or political gamesmanship. The crowd just burst into laughter. #flapol

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead. Idk, just spitballing here.

Tomorrow from Ezra Klein and Matt Yglesias: the Democratic Party will never win elections again unless it stops listening to its far-left extremists like Bill Kristol

Low Key Legend inbound??? #WWERaw

If you’re flying this holiday season, know your rights before heading to the airport. 

Not the New York Times op-ed by Bret Stephens pushing for regime change!

In America they arrest you if you tell someone else not to commit a crime

Here is the federal district court's 2–1 ruling, authored by a very conservative Trump appointee, striking down Texas' new Republican gerrymander on the grounds that it unlawfully discriminates against racial minorities. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

OLD GUNTHER THEME WE’RE SO BACK #WWERaw

10,000 signatures = 10,000 Miamians demanding change. 9 commissioners instead of 5 for fairer representation. Even-year city elections to increase turnout. Transparent, fair redistricting. This is what a citizen-led amendment looks like.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

New WSJ: After flying an FBI jet to see his girlfriend sing at a wrestling match, FBI director Kash Patel took the jet to a private Texas hunting resort called the Boondoggle Ranch. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

This Wall Street Journal piece on Kash Patel's performance as director of the FBI would probably make you laugh if you forgot for a moment that the guy has some very serious national security responsibilities and that none of this is very funny. MSN link: www.msn.com/en-us/crime/...

The gear that AJ Styles wore at WWE Crown Jewel was the same gear that was on the Pro Wrestling Illustrated cover that he and John Cena were on.

Judge Young: "This case ... squarely presents the issue whether non-citizens lawfully present here in United States actually have the same free speech rights as the rest of us. The Court answers this Constitutional question unequivocally 'yes, they do.' 'No law' means 'no law.'"

These Cody and Seth promos are some of the most interesting character work I can remember in a while #WWERaw

Packed house at Proof for Jeremy Matlow’s campaign. Looks like everyday people are ready for @jeremymatlow.bsky.social to be mayor of Tallahassee.

Virginia sends out the field team and get an entire play clock for free. I like that, we all have an oopsies sometimes :)

Just now watching #Wrestlepalooza so two things: 1. Vaquer vs Skye was as good as I thought it would be. Holy hell 2. Stephanie Vaquer with that belt is MONEY
